WMNS Nike Air Rift "Black Iron Grey" IM6017-010

The WMNS Nike Air Rift “Black Iron Grey” returns in a deep, shadowy finish that feels calm and confident. The silhouette has seen plenty of darker looks over the years, but this one stands apart. Instead of the usual soft fabric build, Nike shifts the shoe into full-grain leather. It keeps the style familiar while giving it a sturdier feel for cooler months.

The split-toe design stays front and centre. It’s the detail that makes the Air Rift instantly recognisable. Some love the look; others need time to warm up to it. But once it clicks, it clicks. The shape pulls influence from ballet flats, yet the fit is still secure, helped by the strap-and-wrap structure that hugs the foot.

Black covers most of the shoe, with Iron Grey resting in the details. The palette keeps things minimal, which works well with the smooth leather finish. It’s simple in the best way — easy to wear, easy to style, easy to trust.

Air cushioning sits underfoot for a soft feel throughout the day. The outsole grips well on wet pavement, which is handy in the UK’s usual weather cycles. Inside, the lining stays breathable enough for long wear without feeling stuffy.

If you want a pair that blends comfort, a split-toe twist and a low-key look, this Air Rift fits that mood perfectly. Keep a close eye on UK stockists — sizes move fast every time this model drops in darker tones.
